Marin Retriever Club (MRC)

The Marin Retriever Club (MRC) was established in 1974 by a cross-section of retriever owners who felt there was a need for a multi-purpose Retriever Club. The club objectives are to promote the training of purebred retrievers; to conduct field training sessions for the training of retriever breeds and their handlers; to encourage the training and development of judges; to encourage and cooperate with individuals and other groups with similar purposes; to hold and support Hunting Retriever Tests; exhibitions and matches under the rules and regulations of the American Kennel Club; and to promote cooperation and good sportsmanship among its members in the training and exhibition of retriever breeds. Our members have retrievers representing different levels of Hunting, Field, Obedience, Agility and Show Competition. We currently hold at least two licensed Hunt tests annually, and attempt to hold monthly training sessions and activities.
